EP 170: Understanding Diabetes with Kimberly Ellis

Cup Of Nurses ·

2022/07/01

We've all met or known people in our lives who have diabetes. Diabetes is a long-lasting health condition that affects how the body turns food into energy. The food you eat is broken down into sugar and turns into glucose. It is then released into the bloodstream. When the blood sugar goes up, the pancreas is signaled to release insulin, but when you have diabetes, your body cannot make or use insulin well. It then leads to long-term health conditions and, eventually, death. As debilitating as this

There are misconceptions about nursing that many people don't understand. As nurses, we struggle with many things, and as part of the healthcare system, we are expected to be at a particular place in the hierarchy. We are often looked down and are expected to "do as we're told" rather than a colleague. While this isn't always the case, it is happening in many hospital settings. How can we change these misconceptions? What can nurses do to help each other? In today's episode, we welcome our guest,

An empowered nurse is confident. They are highly effective and reliable in and out of their workplace. However, not all nurses are the same. Sadly, some of us are only there for the money, not to make a difference in our jobs and patients' lives. To provide quality patient care, we must take back that self-confidence and be someone our patients can admire. But what does it take to be an empowered nurse?

Do you know the contents or ingredients of the food you eat? Do you check labels and read about them? If not, then it's time that you should. One of the many things found in our food is glyphosate.

As nurses, we are responsible for taking care of and giving the best to our patients. But how can we do that if we don't know how to communicate? The truth is that some nurses are very skilled and intelligent but lack the communication skills they need when it comes to their patients. On the other hand, some nurses are effective communicators.
